A 14-year-old Warren County girl has been reunited with her family and investigators say she was kidnapped Thursday afternoon.
The teenager's father, who works at Kings Automall, called 911 to report that his daughter was missing
"My daughter comes up here with me sometimes, and I can't find her. I've looked for over an hour now," he said.
He said she doesn't have a cellphone.
"And it's just not like her," her father said.
After looking at security cameras, investigators said she left with a man—who was unknown at the time.
Seven-and-a-half hours later, deputies in Cleveland County, North Carolina spotted the truck, intercepted the vehicle and safely located the teenager.
Brandon Prichard, 38, of Gastonia, North Carolina was arrested. Investigators said he had been communicating with the teen online.
Prichard was charged with human trafficking of a child victim, kidnapping and carrying a concealed gun.
According to court documents obtained by WLWT, Prichard did "knowingly harbor and transport (the victim) with the intent (she) be held for sexual servitude."
Documents state that investigators found a "Glock 9mm semi automatic handgun" on him.
